How does the car run? Turbos produce a lot of heat. Do you notice this at all times or just when running it hard? How is the oil? Are you using synthetic? I have a turbo parts car that used to be my daily driver. I live in the desert. The gage will always stay in the middle, unless you loose a water pump or hose. I never noticed the heat causing any problems like you are describing. If the car has little power, I would suspect a clogged cat. How does the exhaust manifold look after driving? Is it red hot? Really need more info.
